Why choose Triathlon and M3

There are plenty of opportunities for young people to participate in triathlon, with events run throughout the season including an Aquathlon Series – combining swimming and running – and the Scottish Schools and Youth Triathlon Championships.

As the governing body for the sport triathlonscotland set out the age group categories for our younger members. Those categories are: YOUTHS are those children aged 8 – 16 whilst the JUNIOR category is for those young people aged 17 to 19. Please visit the triathlonscotland website for race details and event listings for both age groups.

Here at M3, we currently have a youth section and in line with triathlonscotland requires children to be 8 years old to join the club. Please note that the minimum age for participants for adult training sessions is 14, and the minimum age for youth sessions is 8.
